Seven Questions With DOPEHEAD!

It's officially 420 & at midnight one particular Detroit artist's album went live to the world. That artist happens to be DOPEHEAD, one of Detroit's most talented word weaving lyricists. The Bruiser Brigade member is back from a four year span between records with his latest full length effort "Beautiful Chaos". The contradictory title intrigues, while the albums first doses in the form of "Sunshine" & "Love Is" entice the listener to dive in. With that, I decided it was time to find out more about DOPEHEAD & his new album so of coarse I asked him 7 Questions.

COMMi$$ION: It’s been four years since the release of your last project “Devil’s Heaven”, bring on 2018 & you’re dropping “Beautiful Chaos” on 4/20. Going into this album was there anything you wanted to be sure you tackled differently during the creation process?

DOPEHEAD: With this album Beautiful Chaos fans can expect the unexpected !

COMMi$$ION: As a young kid did you always know you wanted to rap, or was there one particular moment that struck you looking back that sealed the deal & began your foray into music?

DOPEHEAD: My family is heavy in music my great grandfather was a singer in a 5 man group back in his day I lucked up and found his record in our house at the time took it to my great grand mother she was looking at me hella shook like you just found the magic next day she gave me a tape recorder and I started freestyling on blank tapes watching mtv shit was the illest I was like 7 but yeah I was always rapping I can say in 93 I was a lil kid and I copped Biggie Smalls ready to die and that shit made my brain explode

COMMi$$ION: On April 22nd you’ll be performing live at GET JXXKY OR DIE 17 in Hamtramck, MI is this the first of many shows to come? Can we expect a tour to pair along with “Beautiful Chaos”?

DOPEHEAD: Yes it’s the first of many to hit The Sanctuary and it’s about to be wild !!

And I’d love to kill stages solo on TOUR so if they watching DOPEHEAD KILLS STAGES !

COMMi$$ION: Lastly, we got two video gems in the form of “Sunshine” & “Love Is” what was the inspiration behind these videos & if you could create a visual for any of the remaining songs on the album which track would you pick for the video treatment?
